Sit Stay Fetch This is one of the "top three" e-books available. It is a very comprehensive book that is the best organized of the top three books and it is easy to read. The book covers all the issues from A to Z, starting with selecting a puppy that is right for you (if you have not already purchased your pup), all the way to advanced commands and tricks. This will give you all the information that you need for the full scope of training. This is a book that you will keep and refer to for the life of your dog. This book is suitable for any dog owner. The four free "extras" included are:
An additional extra offered as an "upgrade" is the option to include two software items. One software item is a 30 minute DVD video instruction of tips and techniques that can help you better understand the written material. Many people like having visual reinforcement of the training materials to help clarify the methods. The other software item is a program that helps you keep track of information for your dog or dogs. The program keeps track of information such as medical history, vaccinations, operations, obedience training, appointments, etc. It can be very handy when you are making trips to the kennel or the vet, because you can just print out the information that will be needed by them. This upgrade sells for $23 more. Rating: ««««« Value: ««««« Current Price $37 Toilet Training Rating: 16 out of 39

Expanded Review The Book This book is very well organized into 9 sections which makes it easy to read and use (three levels with three sections in each level). The author uses the "college course" approach as he moves from basics to advanced i.e. Dog 101, Dog 102, Dog 103, Dog 201, Dog 202, etc. Each of the three levels addresses three areas of Understanding the dog's perspective; the Well Being of the dog; and then the Training aspects. The author also includes in the beginning of the book a summary of what you should expect the cost of owning your dog will be as a preparation for the purchase of a dog. This is just an example of this book being a complete package. An item that is not included in the book is the toilet training issue. The author covers this in one of the bonus books "House Training Methods and Tricks." The bonus book does a fairly good job of covering the toilet training issue, which should be sufficient for almost everyone. However, the Dog Toilet Training Page covers the books on that topic and how I rate them. The Sit Stay Fetch book is 152 pages long, but easy to find your way around. Below are the sections in the book to give you an idea of what you will get with your purchase. Each of these nine sections has numerous topics below them, so that there are a total of over 100 topics covered.
Sit Stay Fetch also offers a members section on their website with FAQ
area and a Support area where you can e-mail questions in to the
author.
